A blessing in tragedy Burning what's left in effigy Wreckage, when there's nothing left Wreckage, the birthright of regret Wreckage, when there's nothing left A place where truth can hide A place where falling angels survive A place where fear rusts though pride A place where heroes go to die Self delusion, self destruction, falling short so short of faith Wreckage, when there's nothing left Wreckage, the birthright of regret Wreckage, when there's nothing left A place where truth can hide A place where falling angels survive A place where fear rusts though pride A place where heroes go to die An empty shell, a carcass left of greed And empty shell, in the shade grows another weed And you wear the scars well, merciless liar How many times till your shadow haunts you too? Wreckage, when there's nothing left Wreckage, the birthright of regret Wreckage, when there's nothing left A place where truth can hide A place where falling angels survive A place where fear rusts though pride A place where heroes go to die A place where fear rusts though pride A place where heroes go to die An empty shell, a carcass left of greed And empty shell, in the shade grows another weed
